Amitabh burst out laughing and Kriti asked Rajkummar, “So this is the movie you were talking about?” She then continued addressing Amitabh, “Sir, he has said that you’ve asked him to call you AB ji.” Rajkummar responded, “Sir has been my co-actor so what if he doesn’t remember that I was in the film?”
